Pediatric Speech Therapy – FAQs

At what age should I be concerned about my child’s speech delay?

Every child develops at their own pace, but if your child isn’t meeting age-appropriate speech milestones, it may be beneficial to seek an evaluation. Signs of speech delay include:

No babbling by 12 months
No words by 16 months
Difficulty pronouncing sounds after age 3
Trouble understanding or following simple instructions

How does speech therapy help children with communication difficulties?

Speech therapy helps children improve:

Pronunciation and articulation
Understanding and using words correctly
Sentence formation and conversation skills
Social communication, such as turn-taking
Alternative communication methods (e.g., sign language, AAC devices)

Can speech therapy help my non speaking or minimally speaking child communicate?

Yes! Communication isn’t just about spoken words—our therapists help children develop alternative communication methods, such as sign language, picture exchange systems (PECS), or augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices. Every child deserves a way to express themselves, and we’ll find the best approach for your child.

How can I support my child’s speech development at home?

Parents play a key role in speech development! Some simple ways to help include:

Talking and reading to your child daily
Encouraging turn-taking in conversations
Modeling correct pronunciation without pressuring
Using gestures or visual supports for communication
Practicing new words in everyday situations
We’ll provide you with specific home strategies tailored to your child’s progress in therapy.
